Three ingredients for Board success

How successful is your Board?  Is your Board or Committee wasting precious time, effort and not achieving its desired outcomes?

Perhaps it’s missing one of the three key ingredients?  What are the ingredients to successful Boards and Committees?  Put simply, I like to say…Planning, Positions and Performance.

Yes, you heard it right! These three key aspects are intimately connected and dependent on each other so it’s important to pay attention to them.

What is meant by these ingredients?

Planning: the right strategic and governance components to support the Board and it’s organisation.

Positions: the right skill mix and people around the Board table.

Performance: the right direction and progress made by the Board and it’s organisation.

Is your Board grappling to achieve it’s goals? Board Presence helps Boards and Committees with better planning, positioning and performance, to achieve sustainability and success.
